WAVES Enlistments
Curtailed Dec. 1
,. WAVES enlistment will be cur
tailed effective Dee. 1, with only
a limited number allocated to Ore
gon, according to Chief W. E. Bell
of the Eugene U. S. navy recruit
ing itation.
Beginning In December, only
enough WAVES will be enlisted
nationally to provide replace
ments for the WAVES now on
duty. The goal set for WAVES
enlistments will be reached by
Dee. 1, due to the record of ap
proximately 5000 enlistments per
month which has been maintained
tor the past year.
Although quotas now are being
feduced, young women of Oregon
will have the opportunity to qual
ify for WAVES enlistment as In
'the past, except that applicants In
the future will be placed on a
waiting list and enlisted when
openings are available.
Any young woman interested In
the WAVES, Chief Bell explained,
should complete ber application
"and arrange to place her name on
this waiting list so that she will
receive first call when billets are
open. If enlistment quotas later
are Increased, larger numbers of
:WAVEScan be taken.

WASHINGTON W) A sen
ate committee recommends that
tha allies break the back of Ger
man big industry.
..There are two main reasons for
Sthis proposal for a hard peace
'which would ruin any German
hope of again being an Industrial
leader:
I 1. To prevent Germany from re
'arming after this war.i Without
i big steel and chemical plants it
1 couldn't.
3. To destroy Germany's grip
on International cartels by which
Mt has bored into others nations'
'economic and political life,
f . The recommendation came from
the subcommittee on war mobili
sation headed by Sen. Kilgore
' (D. W. Va.) after months' long
1'Study of cartels,
' An international cartel Is an
arrangement between private bus
, Iness groups in two or more coun-
tries. Through it they can control
.Industry,- trade and prices... It
means they can operate Independ
ently of their own governments.
Maintenance of Cartels
; "The German industrial group,"
", says the committee, "has been the
mainstay ' of the International
J cartel "system. .
! "The Industrial monopolists of
'Germany have worked long and
'ardently for pan - Germanism.
They have willingly jeined in
partnership with Hitler and his
lieutenants to achieve their ends.
-. "For all practical purposes, the
social and political philosophies
ot the partners are Indistinguish
able." i ' The committee proposal doesn't
mean that Germany should be re
duced to an agricultural state. But
it would be far-reaching. It says
In part:
; "A real disarmament program
(for Germany) requires not only
the dismantling of all direct mu
nitions Industries but also the dis
mantling and removal to the dev
astated areas of Europe of the pri
mary munitions industries, in
cluding the metallurgical (steel)
and chemlral industries.".
i. The Germans already have vio
lently denounced the Morgenthau
plan that Germany be destroyed
as a modem industrial state.
Assailed By Dewey
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey, In his
last presidential campaign speech,
aald this plan so stirred up the
Germans that it had the effect of
providing them with 10 new di-
visions.
But President Roosevelt has In
structed the foreign economic ad
ministration to speed up studies
on how to control Germany's
"power arid capacity to make war
in the future."
The committee, however, is not
aiming only at the destruction of
cartels with German Interests in
volved. It wants all International
cartels eliminated.
' It says in effect that cartels
not only gag economic develop
ment, free trade and free enter
prise but lay the groundwork for
war .or political control of one
country by another. It says:
' "A cartel system dominated by
American or British interests
would produce the same undesir
able results as the one exploited
by the Geimans."
The committee takes such a se
rious view of the power past,
present and future of big Ger
man cartellst that It recommends
punishment for them after this
War.
